“The Inheritance of Orquídea Divina” by Zoraida Córdova

Here we are with my second 5-star read of the year. I knew this one would be good. I’d been looking forward to reading it since checking out a review of it over on Lair of Books way back in 2021.

GOODREADS SUMMARY

The Montoyas are used to a life without explanations. They know better than to ask why the pantry never seems to run low, or why their matriarch won’t ever leave their home in Four Rivers — not for graduations, weddings, or baptisms. But when Orquídea Divina invites them to her funeral and to collect their inheritance, they hope to learn the secrets that she has held onto so tightly their whole lives. Instead, Orquídea is transformed into a ceiba tree, leaving them with more questions than answers.
